Description
Product Specifications
The 400-AYFQ Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS-12GBPS 256MB Buffer 512E Self-Encrypting FIPS140 2.5Inch Form Factor Hot-Plug Hard Disk Drive with Tray is a high-performance storage device designed for enterprise-level servers and data centers. This hard drive offers an impressive combination of storage capacity, speed, and data security features that are essential for organizations that need reliable and secure storage solutions.
Storage Capacity
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive has a storage capacity of 2.4TB, which is suitable for storing large amounts of data such as databases, multimedia files, and virtual machines. This storage capacity is sufficient for most enterprise-level applications, and it can help organizations reduce the number of hard drives needed to store their data. This, in turn, can help reduce the overall cost of storage for the organization.
Speed
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive has a rotational speed of 10,000 RPM, which makes it one of the fastest hard drives available in the market. This high speed allows the hard drive to access and transfer data at a faster rate, which is essential for applications that require quick access to data. The high speed also makes this hard drive suitable for applications that require high-performance storage such as virtualization, data analytics, and high-performance computing.
Data Security
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive comes with self-encrypting FIPS140-2 security features, which ensures that data stored on the hard drive is protected against unauthorized access. This feature is particularly important for organizations that deal with sensitive information such as financial institutions, healthcare providers, and government agencies. The FIPS140-2 security feature ensures that the hard drive meets the standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for cryptographic modules.
Form Factor
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive has a form factor of 2.5 inches, which makes it suitable for use in enterprise-level servers and storage arrays. The small form factor allows organizations to fit more hard drives in a smaller space, which is essential for data centers that have limited physical space. The small form factor also allows for better airflow and cooling, which can help improve the overall performance and reliability of the hard drive.
Hot-Plug
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive is hot-pluggable, which means that it can be removed and replaced without shutting down the server or storage array. This feature is particularly important for organizations that require continuous uptime for their applications and services. Hot-swapping hard drives can help minimize downtime and reduce the risk of data loss or corruption.
Buffer
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive has a buffer of 256MB, which acts as a temporary cache for data that is being read or written to the hard drive. The buffer helps improve the overall performance of the hard drive by reducing the number of read/write operations that are required. This, in turn, can help improve the lifespan of the hard drive and reduce the risk of data loss or corruption.
512E
The 400-AYFQ Dell hard drive uses the 512e format, which means that it emulates the behavior of traditional 512-byte sector hard drives. This format is important because it ensures that the hard drive is compatible with older systems and applications that are designed to work with traditional hard drives. The 512e format also helps improve the efficiency of the hard drive by reducing the overhead that is required for data storage and retrieval.
